Such a nice pixel art and cool music! Fun mini-games =) Great job!

Submitted

Very nice game! I liked the graphics and sounds. Minigames during Stormy's arrival are fascinating. The only thing I didn't really like was the game with the spacebar, I couldn't get through it for a long time.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! ^-^ Yeah, that's the one game I really want to overhaul after the voting period. I want to add a timer and a little fill-bar so you know how much you have to/don't have to spam space.

Submitted

A very cute game! I love the music! And you can really feel the adrenaline rush at the start of the timer ^^

A flaw I noticed with the sponge mini-game is that the character moves at the same time as the sponge. Other than that it's very polished and the characters are endearing :)

Developer

Thanks! ^-^ And yeah, I initially left that as-is to allow the player to complete games while moving to other games, but with the sponge one, it probably makes more sense to stop your movement.

everything was in place and nicely done!
loved the minigames and the reference to the game jam was top notch haha!
enjoyed it a lot!
i think it would have been better if the instruction of keyboard buttons were in-game instead of on the games itch io page though...
but i loved everything else about it, it was a simple game but pretty nicely polished!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! That's very kind. Yes, I agree. I would have liked to set up the buttons (and some other mini-game visuals) in-game beforehand.

A great little story! The minigames were pretty fun - I recognise the lack of an indicator for the button mashing one was due to the deadline, so that's fine. Although, at one point, I did clearly miss the green section in the timing minigame and still get a tick; might be something to look into?

Sprites and dialogue were lovely, too! All in all, good job.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, poor excuse, but I'll be sure to prioritize a little better next time ^-^ And thanks for letting me know; it's easy enough to make that timing game more accurate.

I like this one, especially the art style, it's astounding and memorable, also the gameplay is pretty nice. Keep it up. Now it's ur turn to try & rate us. Thank u

Developer(+1)

Wow, thanks! ^-^ And sure thing. I'll give it a go as soon as I have the time.

I liked the skill checks on each table, but the speed button mashing on the front desk, I don't like it so much. 

Overall though I think you did a nice job on this game!

Developer

Yeah, that one really bit me in the pants, haha. Definitely going to add a fill bar once the voting period ends.

This game is next-level! The combination of smooth mechanics and stunning visuals makes it a real standout.

Developer

You're too kind. Thank you!!

Good job, I really felt the pressure :D

Developer

Thanks!

Really enjoyed the art and music. The minigames were entertaining, though some of them were a little tough to get right. "Are you a cop?" cracked me up. Great work! Congrats and good luck!!

Submitted

Great art and music, and really funny! Lovely little game jam project, would play more if you felt like expanding on it :) Well done

Developer

Thank you very much! ^-^

Submitted

Neat and simple game. Great cafe ambience with visuals and music. Nice plot twist :)

I really couldn't figure out what to do with the bell and Spacebar mini game. Was mostly spamming Spacebar and it worked sometimes.

Well done overall!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Yeah, originally, I wanted to have a progress bar or mini-timer or both, but that darn due date, haha. For that one on the tech side, you have to hit space 30 times within 5 seconds for a success. 

Submitted(+1)

I liked this game! It was fun to complete all minigames before the health inspector came in!

Submitted

love the game! nice art and great music! and you clearly put a lot of work into it, good job!

Developer

Thank you 🥹Admittedly, there was definitely some missed sleep for this jam, haha.

Submitted

great pixel art and music, also great sense of humor! love it!

Developer

Thank you much! :)

Submitted

Love the game! it's really well designed. Have you thought of adding a thumbnail to your page? It's a very good game and lot of people are gonna skip it if you don't. Anyway well done on the game!

Developer(+1)

Wow, thank you! ^-^ And yeah - I had to leave town right after submitting, but I'm planning on adding a proper page for it when I get back.

Submitted(+1)

Cute game, love the art and music. I was so relieved that my restaurant got called immaculate :D

Submitted(+1)

This was cute small game! Had fun! One thing would have been more when the inspector comes, he would indicate if something is not clean. Good job!

Submitted(+1)

Hee-ho. Cute game

Submitted

Great game I like the design of the inspector.

Developer

Thanks!
